The secret "weapon" of Genesis. He does not have the recognition he deserves, since most people always resume Genesis to the classic battle "Collins vs Gabriel", but Tony Banks' presence is always underrated. One of the greatest keyboardists in the history of music.

@scifiwriter98 3 года назад

He was the dominant composer in Genesis and very domineering in pursuit of getting his way. Unfortunately it resulted in Steve Hackett leaving the group out of frustration. It's too bad they couldn't find a compromise because Genesis was never the same after Wind and Wuthering. It turned out to have more impact than Gabriel's departure.

@fernandodeleon7466 3 года назад

Well...for me,there is no such thing as Gabriel era and Collins era; Genesis ,from the early days until now ,it was always the Banks era.

Great interview with my absolute hero Tony banks the back bone of genesis music. I’m a synth geek love all past and present synthersizers the best synth of all time ARP 2600 awesome closely followed by the mighty Mini moog. Tony your a legend good luck with the tour RIP. Alan r thank you for A R P synthersizers

@anthonyrinaldo1133 3 года назад

Yeah, the back bone of their sound.

@smitlag 3 года назад

Arp had two fundamental blunders on otherwise perfect synthesizer design. While Moog lacked tuning stability which Bob Moog clearly explained the reasons later on, the Arp had no fixed tuning points in which you could immediately start very near A440. So you really almost need to keep the oscillator frequency fixed once you get it to be in tune. If you were going for sound effects none of that mattered but in a situation where you didn't have time to re tune your course oscillator frequency between songs it was a pain. The other flaw was the stupid knob for pitch bend. Sometimes being different just wasn't worth it. But overall in terms of modulation potential the Arp 2600 and Odyssey generally outshines the minimoog by huge margins. The 2500 was more in the Moog 55 league and generally financially out of reach for all practical purposes. It still is if you can find one. Soundwise I think both the Moog and the Arp shine righteously in their own way and are amazing.

Grew up with it in the house until I drove it to a collector in Detroit in 1989 or so. Serial number was 12. By then I was already a massive Genesis fan, particularly the early records.

@robertbroneckid.d.s.9907 Год назад

Yes, definitely a "10/10". As a youth, I made-due with anything and everything I could fabricate, to get as close to "The sound", or Tony's sound. Many friends/Musicians asked/relied on my creations, and in 1978, I decided to trade some guitar gear, for a Pro Soloist. You cant let those sit around in storage, so eventually the original one no longer worked, so my intention was to get another used one, which cost only $600.00, but which happened to work just fine. And then, after a few more years, I "lucked-out" and found a "Pro DGX" (a Soloist, but has buttons instead of switches above the keys). This one has "sat around" for nearly 30 years now, I only use it during song writing/recording, and it still has that ultimate "Tony" Oboe sound. Nothing compares to it. There. That is my Arp testimony! Also, Tony Banks is still the best.

@mightyV444 3 года назад

I thoroughly enjoyed this interview, thank you Dina, Tony, and the ARP Foundation!! I don't think I've ever heard Tony go into such depth about the Quadra before. Never had the luxury of playing one myself, but having first "discovered" Genesis in the Duke/Abacab era, I was initially struck by just how amazingly "cool" that synth looked, and I loved the synth sounds on those two albums. I've since read up on the Quadra's features, and it really is rather unique. So happy to here it get some well-deserved love!

Tony is one of the best prog rock keyboard players ever. Some of my favorite progressive rock albums are Genesis records. Tony's compositions and playing set him apart. A great example is his into to Firth Of Fifth or playing the mid section of Cinema Show. Tony's signature complex melodic sounds are quite memorable. I had a chance to play an ARP Odysey and a Pro Soloist which I know Tony loved and it made me want to learn how to play piano, still a drummer however. Alan Pearlman was the next part of the synth story after Robert Moog taking the technology as far as he did.

My musical taste has never been restricted to genres. I can appreciate musical genius wherever I hear/see it. I have been a fan of Genesis for all of my adult life. I even created my own genre for Genesis. "Precision Rock" was my pet name for it. I have always been amazed by Tony's keyboard playing. Especially his ability to play multiple keyboards at once. Watching him play "Robbery Assault & Battery, with one hand over top of the other, playing the same keys in different combinations, totally amazes me every time I watch it. When a band puts musicians together that are perfect for each other, something special happens. Genesis hit that, spot on. One thing of note: I never really cared for Peter's vocal quality. For that reason, I never got into the older Genesis until recently. My first introduction to the group, was in 1978, by a barracks roommate, while I was serving in the US Marine Corps. "Seconds Out" was the album that captured me.

Makes it easy for me to understand why I place Tony, solo or w/Genesis, among my top 3 fave modern composers, and Stephen Sondheim is one of the other two (haven't quite decided who gets the third spot...).

When I was getting into Genesis I was trying to find albums with Moog on it, and Mellotron also. And Selling England had that. So the keyboard sounds is what I was looking for. It was different than what I was expecting, and I liked his organ sounds like on Apocalypse. You could kind of guess which albums had synthesizers. By 1973 almost all prog bands used synthesizers.

A big hug to Tony, the best! I do love as a musician/songwriter/keyboard player.

Wow Dina-what a treat. It’s interesting to hear how different musicians discovered synthesizers. Imagine that, in a music shop!

Estaba oyendo una entrevista con Roger Penrose y escogió a Bach como su favorito, no omitió a Mozart y dijo que algunos músicos modernos eran geniales ; y que envidiaba a los artistas pues tienen ideas singulares, un músico es creativo en tanto que un físico es descubridor, y si el músico no inventa determinada música, nadie lo hará. Banks es mi músico moderno favorito, aunque yo sea parco en música, saludos y respetos a Tony , y a todos por supuesto. Concuerdo con Rose en Bach y Mozart.
